that_o he_o do_v not_o suffer_v at_o the_o pleasure_n of_o man_n but_o by_o the_o command_n of_o god_n his_o father_n 2._o 2._o second_o he_o show_v that_o he_o be_v not_o rebellious_a against_o god_n

which_o christ_n say_v wilt_n thou_o not_o that_o i_o drink_v it_o will_v not_o thou_o who_o be_v but_o a_o man_n a_o creature_n a_o servant_n yield_v to_o what_o god_n the_o creator_n the_o lord_n will_v have_v do_v the_o father_n have_v fill_v this_o cup_n for_o i_o and_o fill_v it_o to_o the_o brim_n and_o i_o be_o not_o afraid_a to_o drink_v it_o off_o though_o it_o benever_v so_o bitter_a i_o will_v drink_v it_o to_o the_o bottom_n neither_o thou_o nor_o any_o other_o creature_n shall_v hinder_v i_o this_o cup_n be_v provide_v for_o i_o and_o for_o none_o else_o for_o no_o man_n but_o i_o be_v able_a to_o drink_v it_o who_o then_o shall_v drink_v it_o if_o i_o do_v not_o if_o i_o do_v not_o drink_v this_o cup_n all_o man_n will_v perish_v with_o a_o eternal_a thirst_n but_o if_o i_o drink_v this_o cup_n though_o it_o be_v a_o bitter_a one_o yet_o it_o will_v queach_v all_o your_o thirst_n so_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n also_o he_o call_v his_o passion_n a_o cup_n because_o all_o drink_n of_o it_o not_o only_o in_o that_o we_o suffer_v with_o he_o and_o after_o he_o but_o also_o because_o we_o have_v all_o our_o comfort_n from_o it_o as_o therefore_o christ_n resuse_v not_o to_o drink_v his_o cup_n but_o blame_v peter_n for_o dissuade_v he_o from_o it_o so_o let_v we_o do_v also_o we_o must_v not_o endure_v or_o hearken_v to_o he_o that_o draw_v we_o from_o our_o

of_o christ_n i._n e._n to_o acknowledge_v he_o both_o god_n and_o man_n not_o daunt_v with_o death_n or_o danger_n of_o charity_n that_o they_o may_v learn_v to_o anoint_v christ_n foot_n with_o

with_o the_o abundance_n of_o their_o riches_n without_o impoverish_v themselves_o as_o they_o pole_n themselves_o without_o pain_n here_o we_o see_v how_o a_o immortal_a name_n may_v be_v get_v to_o

hear_v that_o satan_n enter_v into_o this_o man_n it_o be_v the_o less_o to_o be_v admire_v that_o he_o shall_v dare_v do_v so_o horrid_a a_o thing_n for_o where_o that_o most_o abominable_a guest_n
